Our Experts

Alison Vaughan | Associate

I joined Hodge Jones & Allen in 2006. I am a family solicitor with a special interest in the law relating to children. I mainly represent parents in cases where social services have become involved with their family and also represent parents in residence and contact disputes, and have particular experience in cases where domestic violence is a feature.

I am a volunteer at the Camden Law Centre, a member of Rights of Women and I volunteer on their family law line.

I had my first experience of the Family Drug and Alcohol Court (FDAC) as a trainee solicitor. My supervisor was representing a father with longstanding alcohol dependency. He was a decent intelligent man who had this terrible problem for most of his life.
